outrage: Funney enough I looked for blacks and didn't find any.

But you have to admit their looting get swag.. Calm and orderly manner


Just imagine say na blacks, only him go wan pack everything, while this ones just take what you need and that's all.

nigerians even make excuses for whites when they're involved in criminal activity grin- its really pitiful that nigerians always give whites the benefit of the doubt while whites always think the worst of you before even getting to know you.

Actually, looking at the video, that's not looting.
The cops/officials are there watching.
Seems like they're giving items away due to the match's cancellation.

That's what you think...

If DC could have one of the most notorious ghettos in America, what makes you think Boston(which is also a big city, by the way) would be different?
Despite the fact that DC is US capital, it has a very high population of blacks just like it's neighbor, Baltimore, so it's expected that DC will have a lot of Ghettos. Boston on the other hand is a predominantly white city.

So, how does being predominantly white change anything? Isn't Nebraska predominantly white as well? - go to Omaha and see if you won't get your brains blown off for talking reckless... Even Little Rock in Arkansas is ghetto as fvck despite being a predominantly white city...

Anyway, being a predominantly white city doesn't change anything - and the Irish are just as ghetto and violent as black people... Don't mess with Irish people - they'll knock your head off ya shoulders... grin

Ho check the records for crimes in Boston, you'd see that it's one of the lowest in the US. It's understandable because the standard of living and calibre of people that live in Boston are higher than those in a lot of American city. There are a lot of educated folks who attend or attended greate schools in the Boston area which includes Harvard, MIT, Boston college etc. These things help shape people. But that's not to say there are no criminal elements in Boston. But they're not as pronounced as you have in predominantly Black cities like Baltimore, Atalanta, Detroit etc.


The funny thing is that even if you were to move to Boston and move into an upmarket white neighbourhood your white neighbours would still treat you like the blacks that you look down on from baltimore, atlanta and detroit - ie give you dirty looks, ignore you when you smile at them or simply move out of the neighbourhood - if they can afford to.

Americans are not inhuman especially in a situation like that. There's no way in the world people gonna be looting in a situation like that, we are talking about terrorist attack.

Are you surprised? You should know by now that the average Nigerian suffers from severe inferiority complex. The same way you see them defend whites on the world wide web is the same way they treat the white man with utmost respect while treating their fellow Nigerians like crap in Nigeria.

How often do whites defend Nigerians online or in the real world? Some Americans were even rejoicing on yahoo when the Dana air crash occurred in Lagos. The average Nigerian is a self-hating shameless negro. I have long lost my respect for most Nigerians. No wonder other Africans disrespect us. Serves the average Nigerian right.

bro you took the words right out of my mouth - during the dana air crash one white person on watching the video and discovering that over 200 people had died on board that flight actually posted the following: only 200??

Inability to beleive that the white man is capable of criminal activity despite the fact that everything he has in this world was stolen from others - tragic.

There's no where you don't have criminals but the crux is the frequency of their criminal acts. Omaha and Little Rock are no =where on the list of the most dangerous cities or towns in America.

I'll rather be looked down on than be shot and i think every sane human being would too. Btw, i don't look down on black people but the sad story is that crime follows black people in the US. Any city with a high crime rate will most definitely have a lot of black folks and that is not because black people are bad due to their skin color but because society has subjected them to this kind of life. Everywhere in the world, it's the poor people that commit most crimes and blacks belong to the poor of the poor in America. We thank God that things are changing gradually. At least a predominantly black city like Atlanta have a lot of rich black folks but the same cannot be said of Baltimore and Detroit.

miqos02: While people were running helter skelter in the wake of exploded bombs, some american were caught on camera looting at the same place. Waoh. watch here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvmD_-_9zhE


Op, please very every info you post here. This is definitely not looting. Nobody loots and hang around the scene. If you look at the video, they were all taking it easy 'looting'. What probably may have happened, was that the individual or organization selling the clothes decided to give them away in solidarity with Bostonians, and it would not be the first time such would happen. Also, you claimed that while people were running away, those on the video were looting. But, your video never showed people that were running away and there is no way one could tell whether this scene is close to the blast. Finally, I have seen the video of the bomb blast, and I can tell you that there was actually no stampede. Those that ran were those very close to the blast, most people were watching the incident unfold from their vantage points.
So, stop these hatred you guys have for America. America can be over bearing many atimes, but have you ever considered what would have happened to the world as we know it, if not for it. Situations similar to Saddam's invasion of Kuwait would have been rampant. I thank God for America and it's stabilizing influence on the world.

"MSNBC host Rev. Al Sharpton tore into CNN reporter John King when he described a supposed suspect in the Boston Marathon bombing as a “dark-skinned male.” Sharpton railed against King’s “offensive, coded language.” He said that, in that moment, King turned every minority in the city of Boston into a terror suspect.

You're a funny guy - NYC is safer than these places... These city have been making top 10-15 most dangerous cities in America for the past 15 years...

Anyway, white gangsters/thugs are more vicious than the black ones... Black people just get bad rep because of our social status and the searchlight they've got on us...

So, when you see a white(esp. Irish, Scottish, Northern English, German, RUssian, American) thug/gangster - just run for your life... They'll chop off your head and lick the blood... grin

If the majority of white americans had to deal with the daily struggle of surviving in a society where they are marginalised and discriminiated against by a majority group i can assure you that they would be doing a lot more than shooting people. Whites can be very violent people - when blacks were freed from slavery in the 19th century whites responded very violently.

Also Detroit was once a prosperous city but i heard that its degeneration was due to many of the major auto companies closing down their factories and outsourcing their jobs to the far east which resulted in a lot of unemployment there. Also have you heard about black wall street - a prosperous black version of wall street which was burnt down by whites in the 1920s?

I agree with your analysis of the link between poverty and crime though.

We're not talking of who has more vicious criminals. We're addressing the frequency of these crimes. You can't argue that.
